From The Kinks, Small Faces, and The Who through The Raspberries, Badfinger, and The Flamin' Groovies to Elvis Costello, Nick Lowe and The
Knack, Power Pop was more than just hooks - it was a distinctive style with melody, jangly guitars, immaculate harmonies, and an attitude.

Guests Cyril Jordan and Chris Wilson from the Flamin' Groovies (whose 1978 "Shake Some Action" is an early Power Pop classic) join Cocktailsfor2
and Zero Gravity in talking about the progenitors and performers of Power Pop, what constitutes a great Power Pop tune, and much more.

A Trifecta occurs when the album title, artist's name, and track name are all the same. The KFJC library has over 100 Trifectas spanning all libraries

Motorhead, Leatherwolf, etc.). Get a "Happy Feeling" and/or be a "Hallucinator"! "Slow Walkers" and "Old & in the Way" listeners are welcome.
Experience that refreshing Trifecta oneness feeling over and over and over again.

introduced me to some very influential music for my life.

Ken's legacy lives on as many great titles here in the library bear the Spiderman tag on the review sticker. My goal is to play albums that were either
added during his time as Music Director, reviewed by him, or generally bear his characteristic signature. Brief anecdotes about Ken may also be shared by
various staff.
